Brief

Software Factory — Chamath announced on 2026-06-25 that 8090's AI-native Software Factory now includes a free trial after feedback that trial absence prevented smaller teams from evaluating it. 8090 offers a 30-day, team-inclusive trial (point at a real repo) via 8090.ai and bit.ly/43S3IST so teams can assess real-code compatibility.

Why it matters

On 2026-06-25 Chamath (@chamath) announced that 8090's Software Factory now offers a free trial, addressing prior complaints about lack of a trial.

Key details

  • 8090 is offering a 30-day, team-inclusive free trial (per 8090_Factory) that lets teams point the platform at a real repository to test durability with their codebase; links: 8090.ai and bit.ly/43S3IST.
  • Chamath said the absence of a free trial was 'not meaningful for large enterprises' but 'impacted the viability for smaller companies and teams'—the new trial targets that gap.
Source evidence

Software Factory growth has been incredible. But one complaint has been that we haven’t included a free trial - this was not meaningful for large enterprises but it did impact the viability for smaller companies and teams to try it before committing.

We have a free trial now.

Please try it and let us know what you think: 8090.ai

A demo can't tell you if a tool survives contact with your own codebase.

So we made Software Factory free for 30 days. Your team included, no charge until you renew.

Point it at a real repo and find out → bit.ly/43S3IST
